I'd have been fine moving Poetl for a solid return, but LOL at people who wanted to dump him to Toronto for a first when the Spurs were able to make that trade with Young instead.
Correct. Not moving Poeltl is worth at least two letter grades.

Maybe rc is finally rubbing off on B-dub
Let's be honest, we're in a much better spot going into next year then most us thought we'd be after that Bryn Frobes signing in the off season. Gotta give the man his props. He's doing well the resources in hand.
hoping f0r 3frp's in '22
the thing is the team didn't even get worse by much. There's not that much of a gap between White and Richardson when it comes to production
Kinda bummed about losing White, though it will be good in the long term. ALTHOUGH.. not sure if I’m more bummed by that or that there won’t be as many “we like what we have” jokes.
He did a good job today.
this off season is the true test though.
We draft and develop well….. I’m excited
So do we have 3 first rounders for this year?
Ours, Bulls and Raptors? Assuming they don't lose out and hit the lotto
Ours, Celtcis, and Raptors. Bulls pick isn't until 2025.
Nice. Now hit on all three with guys who shoot threes. Eazy does it.
Obviously spurs scouts like this draft. I can't imagine Wight ac ulating there draft picks without the scouts nod.
If the raptors decide this ain't their year they'll have no problem tanking their way into the lottery, thereby keeping their pick but also getting the Detroit second from the Spurs, leaving Wright with a stunned look on his face.
Masai to Wright: "Yoinks! Got your pick and mine!"
Then they’ll still owe their 2023 top 13 protected pick to the Spurs. And if they’re bad again then the Spurs will get their high 2nd rounder + another 2nd the following year. It’s a good gamble.
What if Raptors just about make the playoffs and the Spurs get pick 15 this year or next? What will Masai say then?
The Raps are fully committed to the playoffs, 4gms back of 1st in the east and on an 8 game win streak. The additon of Thad was a win now move for a playoff run. That pick is very likely to convey this year.
People love doomsday scenarios, don’t they? Everything has its own risk.
Agree. Our best case scenario for this year is TOR gets in to the playoffs as the 8th seed, while Boston regresses biggly being passed up by Nets, Hawks, and Charlotte (and the teams in the west trying to make the playoffs).
It just proves the saying, some people will never be happy! We are in a good place as an org.
I guess you didn't notice that the current Spurs roster doesn't get you into the playoffs. This team is a the bottom and isn't going up until we get a dominant player.
Then Masai will say, "Oh well, thanks for the le. Yoinks!"
I should point out that I had proposed a similar 2nd to first Thaddeus swap months ago, except with Minnesota and Prince instead of Dragic.
Clearly Wright was reading this forum and that's how he thought of it.
"That's a good idea, I think I'll take it! Yoinks!"
Jajaja
